Jiu Jistu Basics You Are Going to Need
Jiu Jistu Basics Some things to remember when you are rst starting: -It is going to be hard. Really hard. -You are confused? That is ok. There are many pieces to jiu jitsu and it will take time for them to all come together. -TAP. Both respect it and use it. When someone taps, immediately let go. When you feel you are in a bad position, or even if you have a tiny bit of doubt, just tap and start again. -You’re probably going to get someone’s hair and/or sweat in your mouth. General Rules: -No grabbing, bending, attacking individual ngers. Just don’t. -No striking, punching or kicking. -No eye gouging or shhooks. -No picking people up and slamming them to the ground. -You can’t grab the inside of the sleeve or pant cu. You can grab inside the top of the pants though. Weird huh? You are going to need: -A gi. You can get a jiu jitsu gi online or at Dojo Outtters here in Portland. You will need a jiu jitsu gi, not a karate gi. They’re thicker and can withstand all the gripping and pulling. -A white belt. This signies your rank and keeps your top closed. -A water bottle. You’re going to get tired and thirsty during practice. We have a water cooler behind the front door where you came in. -A mouth guard. This is optional, but it will be helpful. Though there is no striking in jiu jitsu, it is a combat sport. Wearing a mouth guard is a good idea.

Origins of Wrestling
Origins of Wrestling Wrestling is probably the oldest of all sports and has been depicted in cave paintings dating back 15,000 years. It was a sport practiced in many ancient societies. The first wrestling matches were likely part of military training. The Ancient Greeks were the most prolific wrestlers, and they elevated it to a physical art form. They realized that wrestling is like playing chess with your body, utilizing techniques and moves to outwit your opponent and, in the process, dominate him. The Greeks also created the Olympic Games, and wrestling was one of only a few events featured in the very first Games in the eighth century B.C. Later, with the fall of the Greek Empire in the fifth century A.D., the Olympic Games ceased, and the sport became less of an art form (reverting to its more militaristic beginnings). In time, both styles spread to the Roman Empire and beyond. When the Olympics resumed in 1896, one of the first sports offered was wrestling. 1904 Olympic Wrestling Match Wrestling in the Americas Many Native American tribes practiced wrestling, but little is known about their distinct styles, which are likely to have varied from tribe to tribe. While the styles may have been different, the goal was the same -- to become skilled warriors. During the 1700’s, wrestling graduated from a form of combat into a genuine spectator sport. It was the major contact sport among men of all classes in America. The wrestling style of the day was collar and elbow, named for the starting position.

Grappling As Projected in the Archaeological Finds of Ancient and Medieval India
Grappling as Projected in the Archaeological Finds of Ancient and Medieval India Kush Dhebar1 1. 505, Technology Apartment, 24 IP Extension, Delhi – 110 092, New Delhi, India (Email: [email protected]) Received: 16 July 2018; Revised: 08 September 2018; Accepted: 17 October 2018 Heritage: Journal of Multidisciplinary Studies in Archaeology 6 (2018): 908‐925 Abstract: Grappling as an unarmed form of combat that has been prevalent in India since the ancient times. Grappling included present day forms of wrestling, Pehelvani, Jiu‐Jitsu, Judo and classical pugilism. Ancient Indian literature is full of references of grappling and other martial arts but along with that India has an undying tradition of archaeological evidences of grappling in the form of sculptures and terracotta plates on Indian monuments right from the Sunga‐ Kushana period to the VIjayanagara period. Keywords: Archaeology, Wrestling, Grappling, Jiu‐Jitsu, Iconography, Mallayuddha, Mushti‐Yuddha Introduction Ancient India had great and widespread martial and physical traditions. Martial Arts practiced by martial artists was known as Mallavidya. This mallavidya was practiced in earthen mud pits known as Akhadas in North India, Talim in Maharashtra and Garadi Mane in Karnataka. The mallavidya that we see today is more or less restricted to wrestling and grappling, but during the ancient times there are references of striking like punches, knees and elbows also being used. For example, in the Harivamsha Purana there are famous bouts between Lord Krishna and his brother Balarama and wrestlers Chanura and Mushtika. If one reads the Purana one can see how fists and knees were used by the wrestlers during the bouts.

Understanding Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Lingo Booklet
AURA UNDERSTANDING BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU LINGO 1 INDEX Where it all began 3 What is Brazilian Jiu Jitsu 3 What is Standing 4 What is the Guard 5 What is a Sweep 6 What is a Guard Pass 7 What is Side Control 8 What is Knee on Belly 9 What is Mount 10 What is Back Control 11 What is Turtle Position 12 What is a Submission 13 Gym Rules 14 What will your first class look like 15 Timetables 16 The idea behind the points is to reward the person who is gaining the more dominant positions and seeking to submit their opponent. The value of the positions is roughly matched to how well you lend yourself into an effective position should you find yourself in a real fight. If you hold the position for at least 3 seconds you have earned your points. 2 WHERE IT ALL BEGAN? Brazilian Jiu Jitsu was first developed in Brazil during the 1920s by the Gracie family. In 1917 Carlos Gracie was taught traditional Kodokan Judo by a travelling Japanese Judoka Mitsuyo Maeda. The family later went on to develop their own self defence system known as Gracie Jiu Jitsu. This system evolved into the modern Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, a world-renowned martial art. WHAT IS BRAZILLIAN JIU JITSU? Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) is a self-defence, combat sport based martial art, often defined as submission grappling. It entails grappling on the feet, ground-fighting, and submission holds. BJJ focuses on advancing to dominant positions, controlling one’s opponent, forcing their opponent to submit to techniques such as joint-locks and chokes.

Heroes Fundamentals Workbook V 1.01 Thank You for Downloading the Heroes Fundamentals Workbook
Heroes Fundamentals Workbook v 1.01 Thank you for downloading the Heroes Fundamentals Workbook. This workbook is designed to help you track your own progress and make an honest assessment of your abilities in Jiu Jitsu. This workbook is specifically designed with White/Blue belt level in mind, but anyone could benefit from this. HOW TO USE THIS WORKBOOK: Fill out the Heroes Fundamentals Worksheet to the best of your abilities. Only fill out the worksheet with techniques that are actually in your current arsenal. If you don’t have a technique for a particular position, leave that slot blank. At the Fundamental level there should be NO MORE than two (2) techniques per box. The exercise is to list two techniques that you have at each position that would be your first and second choices when in the particular position. Ideally each of these positions should be complimentary to each other. After filling out the worksheet with techniques, give a rating between 1-5 on how comfortable you are with each technique: 1. I have learned the technique in Fundamentals and I don’t really get it 2. I have drilled the technique in Fundamentals and it makes sense, but I haven’t had to chance to use it in drilling and sparring much. 3. I have drilled the technique and I feel I can use it against someone at a lower overall level than me. 4. I have drilled the technique and I feel that I can use it against someone at the same overall level as me.

Depending on the number of competitors participating in a division, it is possible that a single loss could eliminate a competitor’s opportunity to compete further in their division. Bracketing When bracketing, it sometimes becomes necessary to collapse divisions. When doing so, the safety and fairness of the competitors is paramount. The general rule of thumb when collapsing is one of the following: • Mix genders (4-11 years old only) • Move up in Age (no more than 2 years) • Move up in Weight (10 lbs / 4.5 kg or less) • Move up in Rank (only 1 rank, 4-15 years old only) Aside from collapsing the genders, it is uncommon to do more than one of the two options listed above. There are exceptions to this rule. Example: 9-year-old boy that weighs 64 lbs can be moved to the 10-11 year-old division against a 10-year-old girl that weighs 67 lbs.
